Dear Hao In PyMOL bonds are essentially drawn based on a distance cut-off: Two atoms are considered bonded if
distance <= connect_cutoff + (vdw1 + vdw2)/2 You can generally adjust the sensitivity of bond recognition by adjusting the connect_cutoff global variable ( https://pymolwiki.org/index.php/Connect_cutoff ), eliminate a specific mis-assigned bond by using the unbond command unbond atom1,atom2 ( https://pymolwiki.org/index.php/Unbond ) or add a missed bond using the bond command: bond [atom1, atom2 [,order]] (https://pymolwiki.org/index.php/Bond) best regards Annemarie Honegger ____________________________________________________________ Dr. Annemarie Honegger Dept. of Biochemistry Zürich University Winterthurerstrasse 190 8057 Zürich Switzerland e-mail: honeg...@bioc.uzh.ch phone: +41 44 635 55 62 fax: +41 44 635 57 12 > > Today's Topics: > > 1.
